Want to deepen your connection? Traveling together can be a mega dose of playfulness — it has all the elements of really good play: learning, exploration, uncertainty, figuring things out together, laughing, discovering newness, and creating memories.

But if travel isn’t possible right now, act like tourists in your own city. Slow down to the pace of a tourist. Notice the little details, browse the gift shops, ask the ridiculous questions tourists might ask, take pictures and selfies. Maybe even adopt a tourist persona and try an accent — all just for fun. Crack yourselves up.

The magic isn’t just in the sights — it’s in slowing down, paying attention together, and laughing. Seeing the familiar through fresh eyes creates shared curiosity, sparks conversation, and helps you appreciate each other and your everyday world in a new way.
